Daphne van den Heuvel

One of the people I love to work with is multi-talent Daphne van den Heuvel. 
Daphne van den Heuvel is a graduate of Gerrit Rietveld Academie in Amsterdam where she made a final collection called “Root Route”.

It represents a journey from child to adult in lines and layers of memories. Daphne shows her own timeline by cutting and layering baby size through adult size patterns, combined with garments, inspired by her current clothing. She uses lasercut transparent fabrics to capture the journey from past to present. 

Daphne’s latest collection is an extension of this story and also focuses on memories. In this collection fabrics consist of self designed knitwear and lasercut fabrics inspired on a babydress of her own. With her collection she tries to keep the memories alive.

Besides making fashion she also enjoys making drawings. She is extremely talented in this, and I love the way she combines her to passions: Illustrating and Fashion.

In the past time I have done two exhibitions with her, one of her fashion collection and one of her illustrations, and one great fashion show.

Here I want to post her drawings since I am huge fan of those. 

She’s one to keep an eye on! Maybe you should keep an eye on us both. Working together.
